COSTA RICA SPANISH LANGUAGE, SMALL PLANET PROJECT, COMMUNITY SERVICE, TOUR AND ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS THIS SUMMER!

Based at the spectacular 200 acre Ranch ‘La Vida Del Corazòn (the Life of the Heart) in an unspoiled area of the Peninsula Nicoya overlooking the Gulf, we are offer the following programs this summer:

The programs are personally enriching, educational, and packed with adventure. Most programs include Spanish classes, optional community service projects, and a variety of adventures such as trips to the pristine Pacific beaches, horseback riding, boating or kayaking, and even a tethered ride in a hot-air balloon. There is never a dull moment at our peaceable kingdom with the friendly horses, cows, goats, chickens, dogs, cats, and monkeys that share the property. Our loving Costa Rican staff will prepare daily family-style meals and there will be ample time to build friendships and enjoy the bounty of Costa Rica’s natural splendor.

Become a world citizen and join us this summer!"
